Favourite Led Zeppelin album?

Houses is great but it's unfinished, missing cuts that should've appeared on it - like the title track instead of embarrassing disasters like "D'yer Mak'er" or "Dancing Days", and sounds odd (which is surprising as Page is a brilliant producer --  plus the material is far more compelling on TSRtS.

^^ There's always a reason for it to be on a record. To be bring various influences. To me that's always a good thing but that's me

^ If you want variety on your record, you have to be able to justify it. You have to understand what those genres are about so that you can actually sound authentic. If you want to, you can always put your own twist on a genre ... kind of re-define it ... which is a risky business, I think.

^ But then you have to justify those risks. And you can do a lot of other things with music.

No, I don't like Plant, Page, Jones and Bonham's music too if you can believe that . Oh yeah and it doesn't help when you don't give credit to artists when credit is due. Plant's vocals get irritating after awhile, Bonham's fills and playing style is virtually the same, Jones' playing does nothing for me, he is average and Page, well he might be the most overrated guitarist in rock music. He is good technically(the only redeeming quality of LZ) but otherwise their music gets old pretty quick for me. Aside from Rush(1974). I don't hear any Led Zeppelin influence, it's either Rush themselves or Genesis, Yes or other influences

Not bad, eh
